Shadowing a nurse--how to get a spot for 2 weeks?

[Tahnster]

Hey guys and gals!

I am an educated and working nurse in Austria but am and American citizen and am currently getting my BScN. For my studies i need to do an internship for 2 weeks in a hospital in California. I have to answer a question and write a report about it. i.e. How do nurses preserve patients privacy?

I am having difficulty finding a spot? Any one have any ideas how to go about finding something???

Grateful for any help!!!

Thanks

Well I almost have to chuckle here. Aren't you a nurse and you said you were experienced. How would you preserve a patient's privacy?

As for finding a spot...put an add in craigslist or look in craigslist or what Scrub said. Also, an internet search wouldn't hurt.
